    First floor, line for buffet

    We had wonderful weather and the Hudson corridor is gorgeous this time of year. Didn't realize our outing was truly on a ferry. About 200 people were on the boat. Had to line up for the buffet (in between rows of other passengers) which was served by a very hard working man and woman. Drinks including coffee, tea, and water were at the bar which was inconvenient. The bartenders did not want to be there. Non-alcohol drinks should be at a separate area, maybe closer to the buffet. The narration was super informative, even for a native NYer. The rest of the boat staff were helpful and nice. My friends and I boarded at Pier 11/Wall Street and all of the banquettes were already occupied (the ferry originates in NJ). It seems pricey for what it was, but there was a substantial staff and you can't put a price on spending quality time with friends.

    Governor Mario M. Cuomo Bridge - New York

    My husband and I went on the fall foliage brunch cruise up the Hudson River. The weather was perfect for a beautiful fall day. Our bubbly effervescent tour guide was Heidi. Heidi said she was a maritime captain and informed us of maritime points of interest including the little red lighthouse and fire boat used for the evacuation during 9/11. She took photos of the guests and even organized a birthday line dance! Heidi also spoke about the Hudson River and how important it was to the growth of New York as a maritime center. Heidi was funny and informative! Heidi pointed out the best spots to take photos. I have a photo beneath the span of the Mario Cuomo Bridge (see photos below) that looks like it belongs in a magazine! Being on a cruise with Heidi is a joy!

    My husband and I took the Sea Streak today for the fall foliage 6 hour tour. Purchased tix online in advance. Boarded fast and left on time. Best part is the fall foliage. You also go under a few bridges, pass the always impressive statue of liberty and the nyc skyline. Great pictures to take and just relaxing. There is a tour guide speaking but he was hard to hear on top deck. We stayed on the top deck most of the time and it was definitely the loudest area as there was a big birthday party group too. It can be windy and cold so dress warm! The indoor lower floors are quieter and clean and if you want to hear the guide..stay on the lower floor.. Bathrooms were clean but two were out of paper towels. We had hot choco and tea from bar. Nothing special. No other food or snacks at bar except hot dogs so little disappointing but you can bring your own which I did but would have liked some options. Overall they did explain mask rules. Wear it indoors and ok to remove when eating or drinking. People don't always like to follow rules but hey that is not sea streaks fault. their staff was fine. Mostly polite. There was a small fire on a piling at the dock in Atlantic highlands when we returned but it did not hold us up from docking too long. The crew handled it seriously. Overall great views and experience. Just go prepared.

    This picture sums up perfectly the general asshattery that rides the ferry daily.

    They say time travel isn't real...wrong. Take the Seastreak and be transported back to 1997 instantly; people reading newspapers, paper tickets, no Wi-Fi, no A/C, all the bells and whistles you'd have 25 years ago with a 2018 price tag. They have spent millions on a new boat, refitting old boats and the like, but haven't spend maybe a thousand or two to get Wi-Fi working. It will NEVER work, so be prepared for that. They say they are working on a digital ticket system but I'll believe that when I see it. This summer about 85% of the time the A/C didn't work, which is no fun for 40 minutes in the middle of July. Now, these are first world problems but when I am paying almost $700 a month I expect something a bit more, call me old fashioned. Not to mention the boats get so full at peak hours you are forced to either stand or sit in the stairwell (which are both no-nos according to their announcements and likely the US Coast Guard). Sitting in a dirty stairwell 300 people just walked up isn't necessarily the most fun. They seemed to have fixed the HVAC issues, I hope it stays that way. But they didn't communicate that until after it was over. The people, oh the people. If you're considering a move to the burbs, a few trips on the ferry cures you of that. Honestly, the lack of self-awareness coupled with self-involvement is unreal. Everyone needs to be first, trust me Tad you aren't as important as you think you are, you'll get out eventually no need to run people over. Putting your bags on seats is just annoying and I am going to make you move it. The people that feel the need to stand at the door 25 minutes before we dock to get out first, at least move with a purpose! LORD, if you need to be first move quick, welcome to New York. Act like there's a sale on buffalo zinger poppers at Olive Garden. Sitting on the outside seat, just move in, it's a pain for you to get out and let someone in or when I need to get out a different stop you will have to move. Trust me you'll survive on the inside seat, it's a whole new world. The parking lot is Mad Max, Atlantic Highlands. Zipping out with pedestrians walking around, not stopping and looking when leaving the lot, if you hit someone with your Audi it may damage the paint, slow it down dude. Same goes for the grown men on scooters almost running people over. I will say it is quick, and if you get there 15-20 minutes early you'll get a set more than likely and it beats the train. The crew has gotten much better and friendlier. Overall, it's just meh for what you pay they really need to step up their game.

    I just came back from the SeaStreak cruise to Cold Spring NY and had a wonderful time. This is a 6 hour trip: 2 hours sailing with a wonderful and informative commentary: the history of NY fills your eyes and ears. Beautiful vistas: the Intrepid Museum, the Cloisters, High Line, Sleepy Hollow, West Point Military Academy etc and the beautiful fall foliage along the way. My friend and I were sitting on the Upper Deck going (of course we wore thermal and insulated clothing, u need this!) And sat in the enclosed lower deck coming home and found the seating comfy and cozy. The town: quaint and beautiful especially this time of year: pumpkins, cider and the mesmerizing colors of Fall. If you want to skip shopping then pick up a free map at Rincon Argentina Cafe ( the owner is awesome and informative PS who knew this cafe would sell rugelach to a Bklyn bred girl!) and you will notice many inspiring trails that dot the Hudson River ie Trailhead for Bullhill. If you want to shop there are so many neat country style shops like the Country Goose whose British born owner sells eclectic products from cooking tools, soaps and Star Wars toys! If you love an Aveda inspired wellness shop then you must visit Cold Spring Apothecary and if you love American Craftsman wooden treasures(I do!) then you must peruse the crafts at The Country Touch on Main Street. Cold Spring also offers entertainment via Hudson Valley Shakespeare and hosts its own Boat Club and dock via Foundry Dock Park and of course lodging at the rustic Hudson House a River Inn. This rustic town really takes you back: you feel at times you are in Andy Griffith territory which by the way is a great feeling. I highly recommend this trip esp for New Yorkers who want a nice 1 day getaway from the hustle and bustle of city living. Tip: book via GoldStar

She greeted and was very friendly. As it turns out, we were the only people on this particular tour, as it was a Saturday and most of these tours occur on Sunday. She keeps you involved as she is always showing you something interesting and explaining facts about it. She is definitely engaged with the people in her tour. We did a good amount of walking and saw many things. She also explained how people lived during those times. One interesting fact was that apartments on the higher floors were less expensive than those on the lower floors, which is completely opposite today, where apartments on the higher floors are much more expensive. When explained that there was no running water and baths required that water be brought up to the apartment, which was a chore. Also, everyone generally shared the same water because they didn't want to schlep the water multiple times. We went into the Tenement Museum, which was interesting. We went into several restaurants and shops My favorite was Yonah Schimmels Knishs, where we bought about 10 of them. In retrospect this was a mistake because they weighed about 12 pounds and we had to carry them. The tour was about 2 hours or so. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Leslie was very engaging and made the tour move quickly. She is very knowledgeable and I would highly recommend any tours that she gives. We plan on going back to take another in the near future

I have to say that I'm pretty critical of boat brokers, I've been boating my whole life, have a good handle on what I'm looking at, what my needs are and all of that. With that said, I have little patience with brokers that do not know what they are talking about; many don't of course. However, meeting Mike I have to say that he was great to deal with. Mike was fair, honest, motivated and responsive. If I reached out he was quick to respond. Mike was a straight shooter and didn't BS me. I'm old and have been around for a long time and can typically pick up on the BS fairly quick. Mike was easy to deal with and his office staff (Nicolette) was just as great to deal with as well. I have no complaints with these guys, they were a big help and I appreciate it. Here is one example of Mike's dedication, on a Sunday, not too long ago, Mike flew in from vacation, got in his car and drove straight from the airport to meet up with me so that I could see the boat for the first time that I eventually bought. That told me right there that he was dedicated to his work. Nice to see that still exists. Thanks again Mike and Nicolette! Kerry H

    During this strange world, I've been enjoying taking advantage of all the amazing virtual…read moreopportunities out there we may not otherwise get because of our world circumstances. One of these opportunities includes The New York Adventure Club, a tour company that in typical times hosts in-person "adventures" around New York. I love the idea of a group of citizen experts showing off all the awesome things in their city. In normal times, it looks like they tour museums, historical sites and lots of hidden "secrets" around the city. I've always been interested in the arts and history of New York and have really enjoyed hoping on these virtual experiences. So far, I've attended two virtual events, "The Secrets of TriBeCa: Lofts, Artists, & Alleyways" led by Gardiner and "The Famous Gilded Age Balls that Forever Changed NYC" led by Kristen. I would easily attend more. I was really impressed with the breadth of knowledge of these guides, and how much time, energy and thought was put into the research and assembly of these webinars. In particular, Gardiner grew up in TriBeCa and had such a personal spin to his entire virtual event, which was super cool. For a $10 ticket to these online events, you're getting so much more in value. I'm so pleasantly thrilled with the type of content they offer and will definitely be attending more of these in the future. If you live outside of NYC, definitely consider hopping on one of these fantastic events and learning something new! Love this cool business.

    I attended a Brunch Classics cooking class at Essex Market on Saturday, August 13, 2022 organized…read moreby New York Adventure Club and was stunned that even though this was an indoor event with approximately 12 people sitting ultra-closely side by side around a prep island, that the class leader, Chef Jon Lovitch was permitted to actively discourage mask wearing among the participants during his opening remarks. His reasoning was that in eating some of the dishes he would be preparing, we would get "cinnamon and sugar all over our mouths," and therefore he emphasized we should NOT wear a mask throughout the class since the CDC had recently relaxed those guidelines, and "we should all be getting back to normal." It was obvious that I was the only mask wearer and that I would continue to wear my mask in response, so he turned to me in front of everyone and asked if I was OK with everyone else not wearing a mask, essentially trying to pressure me into removing mine. I resisted the combination of both public peer pressure and mask-shaming and did not remove it except to eat and then I kept those moments ultra-brief. I'm a breast cancer survivor and have to be extra careful at indoor events where people are seated in close proximity to one another and are not wearing masks. In other instances of ultra-poor planning by the New York Adventure Club, It should be noted that no napkins were provided together with the food-sampling plates and forks, which was curious as either purposeful or an oversight given the heavy-duty negative pressure not to wear masks from the class leader; that the elevator to the floor with the demo kitchen where the class was being held was turned off to that floor so that someone in a wheelchair could not even reach the class at all; that only two of the four recipes were printed out and those were only distributed at the end of the class, preventing someone from taking notes on the recipes in real time as with most well-run cooking classes; and that when I tried to speak to the group's owner, Corey William Schneider, who was in attendance at the class at all times, he brushed me off completely and told me to only give him feedback at the end of the class (he was busy taking photos throughout but otherwise remained completely silent). In short, I can't recommend any of this group's in-person events, because there is not a sufficient emphasis on protecting the health and well-being of participants, and if you read their other Yelp reviews, you'll see that many of their events actually end up getting cancelled. I also believe they may be violating the Americans With Disabilities Act with some of their lack of organization and socially irresponsible messaging. So if you have any kind of health condition or are disabled, please be very careful about attending any of this group's in-person events. And if you attend any of their cooking classes with Chef Jon Lovitch, you should be prepared to resist concerted pressure to remove your mask if you are someone who typically wears one at indoor events where you're sitting side by side with a lot of other people who aren't mask wearers. Each person has to decide about mask wearing for themselves now, but I don't think the New York Adventure Club should be actively supporting not wearing masks in close quarters, or they risk litigation should someone becomes ill as a result.
